Thank you to everyone who came out and celebrated the beautiful new Pleasure House Point property with us Saturday!  We could not have asked for a more gorgeous day.  Close to 2000 people came to check out our festival and every one of them seemed happy and eager to learn something new about the Lynnhaven.  A special thanks to all of the volunteers (we had over 100 LRNow volunteers!) and participants for making the day happen.  We couldn't have done it without you!
